Did this with Trackable Wife. As previous people mentioned had a problem with the second location but a heads up from the CO and we soon had it completed.
Nice to know we have now done the first Wherigo in the world.
Whoo Hooo!

Good starter wherigo - as long as you can see the number, you know *that* number that everyone mentions on their geocaching.com logs. After that it's all straightforward and very well put together.

I had a problem at the start when I couldn't locate the first answer. I thought I had the CO;s phone number in my phone, but I didn't, but then I realised that there were places I might be able to find it, so around a 2 mile walk later I managed to find the phone number. It was then a quick PAF to the CO, who was very helpful and most enlightening and then asked me if I could see what he meant. I had to say that I couldn't as I was now a little too far away! Anyhow a 2 mile walk back (must be the furthest anybody has traveled from waypoint 1 to waypoint 2 on this cache!) and from there on it was plain sailing.

Bizarrely I learnt about this cache being the oldest wherigo cache in the world when I was scoping out a US Challenge cache! (GC51GGK)

Thanks for keeping this old one going. Played on an old Oregon.

So, I went to the start point with my Garmin Colorado and started the cartridge. But all I got was a rude message telling me that it thought I was playing on an emulator and that I should get out into the open air...

So I walked back over the railway footbridge to my motorbike parked by South Ealing Station...

Seems that the Wherigo system is still rather flaky. Oh well, never mind.
